"I'm going to tell you right now: there's no Rihanna," the producer told MTV News. "I don't know where that came from. I've seen it all over the place, but there's definitely not a Rihanna song on it."

However, Dr Luke did reveal who would be featuring on the new album, which is due out on December 4.

"Iggy Pop is on the record, Patrick [Carney] from The Black Keys is on it, another sick drummer we have is Fabrizio Moretti from The Strokes on it and [frontman] Julian Casablancas plays on some stuff and Wayne Coyne from The Flaming Lips did a song."
